Histone Methyltransferase Screening and Profiling Service

Creative Biogene offers the best histone methyltransferases (HMTs) screening and profiling service in this field. Our talented scientists with years of experience and skills will provide fully defined, flexible services for potential drug inhibitors of HMTs. Creative Biogene has confidence in assisting your HMTs based drug discovery with high quality data and fast turnaround time.

Methyltransferases are enzymes which transfer a methyl group from SAM to their substrates. DNA methyltransferases modify DNA by transferring a methyl group to cytosines. DNA methylation process suppresses gene expression, which is critical for transcriptional silencing during imprinting, X-inactivation and other developmental processes. In addition, DNA methylation plays a key role in the development of nearly all types of cancer.

Besides DNA, Methyltransferases can also modify proteins. HMTs regulate or control DNA methylation by chromatin-dependent transcription repression or activation. HMTs transfer 1-3 methyl groups from SAM to the lysine and arginine residues of histone proteins, which will differentially regulate chromatin structure and transcription, so that affecting gene expression levels. Inhibition of HMTs may cause expression of silenced genes, and HMT inhibitors are currently developed as therapeutic drugs for applications in cancers and many other diseases.
